Nürburgring Grand-Prix-Strecke (BES/WEC)

In the Nissan GTP class at the Nürburgring Grand-Prix-Strecke, Ferran S. Grau secured the victory after a dominant performance that saw him climb from a sixth-place start to finish first. Grau completed 23 laps with four incidents, successfully executing a pivotal overtake on lap 6 to claim the lead from pole-sitter Laust Olsen. Once in front, Grau controlled the pace for the remaining 18 laps of the race. Laust Olsen finished in second place, completing 23 laps with three incidents. Despite leading the first 5 laps, Olsen was unable to reclaim the top spot after being passed by Grau. Forbes Marshall rounded out the podium in third place, completing the full 23-lap distance while managing six incidents throughout the event. In the Audi 90 GTO class, Joni Hagner maintained control from the start, securing the victory after leading the field from pole position. Hagner completed 22 laps with only two incidents, demonstrating consistent pace to finish one lap ahead of the rest of the class. Andreas Schuster, who started in the second position, finished in second place with 21 laps completed and two incidents. Ilkka Kotisalo secured the final podium spot in third, finishing 21 laps with eight recorded incidents. The race featured a wide range of incident counts among the 20 total participants, highlighting the technical difficulty of the Nürburgring circuit. While the podium finishers in both classes maintained relatively clean races, several drivers struggled with the track conditions. Jontxu Pardo recorded 10 incidents, while Emilio Dicharri ended the event with 14. Both Shady Ahmad and Alberto Damián Hernández Suárez struggled significantly with track discipline, each accumulating 15 incidents during the race. These high incident counts impacted the overall field spacing, contributing to the one-lap gap between the GTO class winner and the remainder of the pack.
